SYZR QUICK START SET-UP INSTRUCTIONS

The Speedplay Syzr is the only MTB pedal to deliver 100% of
rider power directly through the cleats unlike other MTB pedals
that waste energy by transferring power through the spongy rubber
lugs of the shoes. To achieve this game-changing performance
breakthrough, the Syzr Pedal System is fundamentally different in
design than any other brand. Expect a period of adaptation as you
acclimate to the unique ride characteristics of the Syzr Pedal System.
Follow these important set-up instructions to ensure optimal performance in all conditions.

Use only the amount of micro-adjustable float necessary for your riding
comfort. Riding with more float than required may make cleat alignment for
entry more difficult, so adjust cleat float to the minimum range needed.

Use a lower spring tension setting. To achieve 100% power transfer, the
Syzr was designed to exacting manufacturing tolerances. As a result, you must
use a low spring tension for the pedals to operate properly in mud and sand.

Avoid increasing spring tension during the adaptation period. Contrary
to instinct, do not increase spring tension to control your feet from releasing
inadvertently. Increasing spring tension makes routine entry and release more
difficult, especially in dirty or wet environments. Adapting to a lower spring
tension when riding is learned over time, so you should expect a period of
adaptation of 2 to 3 weeks as you refine your technique and learn to control
your feet when pedaling.

Bring a tool with a T-10 Torx tip on rides. During your ride, adjust spring
tension to allow consistent release in the worst conditions you encounter.
Adapting to this setting ensures optimal entry and release in all conditions.

Expect Syzr pedals to release more easily than other MTB pedals. The
Syzr release takes less effort than with other MTB designs because the Syzr
has no rubber contact friction between shoe and pedal. Other pedals that
contact the rubber of the shoe sole create rotational friction or "stiction" and
require more of an effort to release.
